Q. Could you please tell me what is the limitation for filing the national phase via PCT in China? Is it 30 months or 32 months? I have seen different versions of this limitation.
A. Unless I am mistaken, China is a 30 month country.
A great resource for determining whether a country is a “30†or “31†is: http://bpmlegal.com/pctco.html
